serrated scissors
Toothed cutting blades
Serrated scissors have blades with a jagged, saw-toothed edge rather than a smooth cutting surface.
The teeth grip fabric or paper to prevent slipping during cuts, making them useful for slippery materials like silk or for creating decorative zigzag edges.
Pinking shears are the most common variety.
